Razorpay Payment Button Plugin

68 Quality Score

Active Installs

15/30

With roughly 2,000 active installs, the plugin has modest adoption and scores moderately on popularity within its niche.

Update Freshness

25/25

The plugin was last updated on 25 March 2025, which is reasonably recent, but the missing WordPress and PHP version requirements make it harder to judge long term maintenance health.

User Rating

6/15

A perfect 100 from only 2 ratings is statistically thin and not a reliable signal of broad user satisfaction.

Support Health

8/15

Zero support threads and zero resolutions mean there is no public track record to evaluate how the developer handles user issues.

WP Compatibility

15/15

Compatibility lands at a middling score because WordPress and PHP version requirements are not declared, even though the plugin is listed as tested with WordPress 6.7.5.

What It Does

The Razorpay Payment Button Plugin lets WordPress site owners add a hosted Razorpay checkout button to their pages, accepting one-time and recurring payments via credit and debit cards, UPI, netbanking, and wallets. It focuses on quick setup without requiring a full WooCommerce store, so a shortcode or block is enough to start collecting money. Refunds and basic payment management are handled through your Razorpay dashboard rather than inside WordPress.

Who It's For

This plugin is a sensible fit for Indian freelancers, small businesses, course creators, and nonprofits who already use or want to use Razorpay and need a lightweight way to take payments without standing up a full WooCommerce site. It also works for anyone selling a simple subscription, digital product, or donation where embedding a single checkout button is sufficient. If your audience is primarily in India and you need UPI support out of the box, this plugin covers that ground.

Who Should Skip It

If you run a WooCommerce store with cart, shipping, tax, and inventory logic, this standalone button plugin will not replace a proper WooCommerce gateway integration and you should look at the Razorpay WooCommerce extension instead. Sites needing Stripe, PayPal, or any non-Indian payment methods should also pass, since Razorpay is designed for the Indian market.

The Bottom Line

The Razorpay Payment Button Plugin is a narrow but functional tool for adding a Razorpay checkout to a WordPress site without WooCommerce, and it earns an overall Quality Score of 47.3 out of 100. The low rating sample, zero public support threads, and missing version requirements hold it back. For Indian sellers who just need a button, it is worth a try, but anyone running a full store should use the WooCommerce gateway instead.

Pick this if you sell in Nigeria or Ghana and need a WooCommerce-native gateway with a far larger install base of 30,000.

Montonio for WooCommerce 80/100

Pick this for Baltic and Finnish WooCommerce stores needing local banks, card payments, and BNPL in one package.

Secure Gateway for Authorize.net and WooCommerce by Pledged Plugins 80/100

Pick this for North American WooCommerce shops that already process through Authorize.net and want deeper gateway features.

Pay for Payment for WooCommerce 80/100

Pick this as a complementary tool when you want to charge customers an extra fee for specific WooCommerce payment methods.

ZarinPal for WooCommerce 79/100

Pick this if your audience is in Iran and you need a WooCommerce-native gateway tailored to that market with 50,000 installs.
